In this picture is an artist impression of the combat spacecraft, and it could be one version of "Project Thor", what was mentioned for the high power railgun, what is planned to send to the orbiter. In fact, the "Thor" was not pure railgun, what would use the pure magnetic accelerator. This system was mentioned to be like the extremely powerful airgun. Behind the accelerator was a chamber, what was filled with the hydrogen and oxygen gases, and then this gas combination would be ignited with the electric arc, and that would push the iron projectile to the accelerator.


Then the magnetic rail would give extra speed to that projectile. That magnetic accelerator could have the capacity, that it can be pulled inside the satellite, that nobody sees it from outside. The rail would be kilometers long, and it can be made extremely thin cables and magnets. In the empty space, the rail would need no tube, and that's why it could be very light. This system could accelerate the nail at the speed of 30 000 to 100 000 kilometers per hour, and in that speed, the impact power would be so high, that this weapon can cause similar damages, as the nuclear warhead.


The United States Air Force would be reported that the  6.1 meters long and 0,3 meters thick tungsten cylinder, what have the speed of Mach 10 could have same impact energy as the 11.5 tons of TNT. In this scenario, the railgun seemed like some revolver, where the tungsten arrows were in the revolver-type drum, what would be rotating, and turn the next arrow to the port of the rail. This system might have more deadly models, where would be used longer rails and more electric powers than this original "Odin" system. And this kind of system can someday turn the impacting asteroid away from Earth, but it can also be used for orbital bombardment.


Rail of this machine could be pulled inside when it would not be in use. This system can work with the nuclear reactor, but also solar panels are suitable for that device. When the weapon would be launched, the same mass of fuel must be burned in opposite side of the tube, that the aiming of that system would not be changed. There are rumors, that there would be planning of the even more powerful railgun than this device.


The rumors tell that "Project Odin" could be series of satellites, what would be docked together, and thru those satellites would go the accelerator trajectory. That modular system could give same speed as the "Hadron" accelerator. And the iron ammunition could travel near the speed of light to the target. The iron nail what travels the 90% of the speed of light would have so much impact power, that it would destroy the planets like Jupiter.

Antigravity will be the greatest thing. That we have ever created.

"Artistic depiction of a fictional anti-gravity vehicle" (Wikipedia, Anti-gravity) Sometimes, if the airships have the same lifting power as the weight of the airship.  It can act like some “antigravity system”. Those systems are based on lighter-than-air gas or hot air. The system can have a helium tank. And the hot-air section whose temperature can be adjusted using microwaves or particles that lasers warm. Those systems are faster to control than some gas flames. This makes it possible. To adjust the lifting power.  If a thing like a balloon has the same lifting power as its weight, the balloon can be lifted to a certain point and altitude. And the balloon stands at that point until something moves it. That kind of thing can make an impression. On the antigravity systems. Modern airships. Like Lockheed-Martin P-791 can look. Like a “UFO”. The system can use systems to move the craft. Or maybe those ion systems are used for plasma stealth systems, if those airships' mis...

The first test flight of X-59 QueSST

The X-59 QueSST (Quiet Supersonic Technology) demonstrator is the next generation of aircraft design. The QueSST technology means. The aircraft creates a gentler sonic boom. Because its wings are radically long and narrow delta wings, and its nose is also radically long, which makes the sonic pressure cone thinner. That technology makes the sonic boom quieter.  The QueSST technology in X-59 is a new and radical design. All of those systems are caricatures. And the final solutions might look far different than the prototypes. The QueSST technology is one of the things. That is planned to be used. It is used in military and civil applications. If that technology is successful. It can be used in manned and unmanned systems. But that requires more work.  The X-59 also uses fundamental technology. Where the pilot must not have windows. To see outside. The camera and other sensors replace traditional windows. And that can be useful in more advanced aircraft that operate at hypersoni...

The theory about paralleled universes

http://crisisofdemocracticstates.blogspot.fi/p/the-theory-about-paralleled-universes.html Kimmo Huosionmaa There is the quite unknown theory about paralleled universes. In this theory, there is not a single universe. Universes are like pearls in the pearl necklace, and there could be the connection between those universes. The connection to other universes would make possible the channel what is forming when the black hole would make the gravity tunnel to another universe. And in the paralleled universe theory, there could be millions of universes in the line, and this is also known as "Multiverse-theory". This theory was established when the galaxy-groups were noticed by astronomers. In that time were noticed that there are so-called super-groups of the galaxy, and those super-groups, where we're so much galaxy that galaxy involved stars made some cosmologists think that maybe there is also groups of universes in the emptiness. This kind of structures is so enormo...
